Reports on ITS Condition in Severa

Reports on Its Condition in Several
Interior States.
The Farmers Review of Chicago says.
The reports as to tho condition of winter
wheat continue to be greatly of favorable
character, with the exception Of those from
Kansas where, in ma jority of the coun-
ties, the outlook is regarded as poor. The
latest reports were all made prior to the re-
cent cod wave, and the resulting
damage TO exposed fields, il any has
not been fully disclosed. The re- orts
from Illinois, Indiana and Ohio state that the
plant is looking green and tender, but that
broad areas are entirely exposed and indi-
eating that the crop would be subjected to
certain amount of peril in the eventof freez.
ing weather. In Michigan and Wisconsin
the Fl Ids are well protected, and the outlook
is regarded as very favorable. In Cherokee,
Clay, Ellis. Jefferson, Lyon and Pawnee
counties of Kansas the prospects are regard
ed "a very poor. In many instances the
plant is just alive, and the fields are gener-
ally exposed and tare. In Rush, Craw ord,
Doniphan, Lincoln, Miami and Nemaha
counties OF Kansas the prospects Of the crop
are regarded as fairly good.
